Saw the '09 in Person

Post by VforVIBE »

And it's about time...I must say, I feel a bit better about the back end, but the handle is still a bit odd. Although I didn't get a chance to sit in it, the seats looked VERY interesting, they look like they have little grippers of some sort(?) Looks like it'd leave imprints if your going shirtless.I LOVE the front end, much sharper then the last version... too bland for my tastes.Any one else get to see her in person yet?

Radio commercials for the show said it was going to be there. When I go for my next oil change I'll look for it.I'm sure pics don't do it justice though.

I drove one. I love the exterior styling but the interior isn't nearly as comfortable as my Vibe. The 2.4 seems a little sluggish.

Saw 2 at the auto show here last week. There's a dealership across the street from me that has some too. Walk past them every time I go for groceries.They've got some nice updates, but I'll keep my '06 at least until the next gen comes out.

I'm really waiting for a blue one to come in. Then I'll post pictures of that one!

I really want to see one.. the pics are cool, but hard to tell from them... I prefer the 2004 model for the lights, but I think the "muscular" stance of the '09 is pretty much just awesome!If only I had the moneyy... hehe
